It won’t matter anyway, with those kind of ethics you’ll always hate your job and your life. Grow up, get some psychiatric help or you’ll end up eating a bullet before your fifty due to all the anger that you obviously don’t know how to deal with. —Windows excuse #38 as applied to cars: You have a door ding, no wonder it won’t start!

Answer: I think you should see a different bankruptcy lawyer. I live in Louisiana. Some close friends declared bankruptcy for medical reasons. They were able to keep their cars and their house by “affirming” those debts. Their medical bills and credit card bills, which were in the five figures but I’m forgetting the exact amount, I’m thinking about $50,000, were completely discharged. Louisiana is a homestead state. They are not trying to get people’s houses or retirement plans, and they also allow for each working adult to have an operating vehicle so they don’t lose their job.
I wouldn’t worry about the bill in the Senate. There is a “rider” on the bill, which prevents anti-abortion terrorists from declaring bankruptcy when they are sued by people they threaten or assault (or by the families of people they kill). This “rider” creates enough uproar from year to year to keep the bankruptcy bill from being passed.
If I was making $50,000 a year, I sure wouldn’t have any trouble paying a $7000 credit card bill. I am not entirely sure what you are doing wrong but I hope I can get a dialogue going with some other low income posters like myself. Maybe you can read some of our discussions to get ideas of how to cut costs to the bone.
